    • Is rate that makes a comparison to 2 unit

    • Is a ratio that compares two quantities that have different units of measure

    • Is a ratio that compares two quantities that have same units of measure

    Correct Answer
    A. Is rate that makes a comparison to 1 unit
    Explanation
    A unit rate is a rate that compares a quantity to a single unit of measure. It allows for easy comparison and understanding by expressing the rate in terms of one unit. For example, if the rate is 60 miles per hour, it means that for every hour, the distance traveled is 60 miles. The unit rate simplifies the comparison by reducing it to a single unit, making it easier to comprehend and work with.
